Overview

Mark My Search is a complete word finder for anything you search online. Powerful highlighting and advanced features combine with a friendly, intuitive interface to provide effortless text finding without the compromise. Vibrant highlight colors look great on any page, complemented by scroll markers for locating matches and a keyword edit bar which stays until you're done. Shortcuts are available for every action while varied options let you personalise to your taste.

Search for anything, on any search engine - DuckDuckGo, Google, Bing, even Reddit - and Mark My Search will pick out the words you're looking for, in that page and through any links you follow. Highlighting happens without having to press a button! Activate on any page using Alt+M or the context menu.

Mark My Search is Free and Open Source on GitHub(1). See the Roadmap(2) for planned improvements!

⎻⎻⎻⎻ Accessibility ⎻⎻⎻⎻

To turn off visibility for automatic highlighting, simply open the options page at chrome://extensions > Mark My Search [Details] > [Extension options] and disable both visibility settings. The highlights will be hidden, while the toolbar and scroll markers remain visible, ready to be shown at a moment's notice. This does not apply to manually activated highlighting.

To turn off automatic highlighting completely, click the extension's icon to open the popup, and disable "Detect search engines".

You may wish to press the top-right puzzle piece (Extensions) and 'pin' the Mark My Search icon, so that you can easily click it to open the popup.
